"Battleground" focuses on an assassin who suffers an ironic revenge, and includes no spoken dialogue. It featured elaborate make-up effects for a group of living toy soldiers. This was supplied by Lee Romaire, a former Jim Henson's Creature Shop sculptor. The Creature Shop itself supplied digital enhancements for the scenes. As with the Lilliputians in Gulliver's Travels, the soldier performers were shot against a blue screen, and then digitally composited and enhanced to appear miniature. Though unbilled, Bill Barretta was cast as the most prominent toy, the Rambo-like Savage Commando; Barretta wore a full facial-prosthetic patterned after his own features.
